General Ledger (1896-1898)
This ledger covers the period January 1896-September 1898. As the
account book of final entry, it summarizes transactions relating to the sale of
phonographs and records. Included are stock, capital, sales, advertising, talent,
and payroll accounts. Many of the accounts pertain to sales representatives,
including general sales agent George E. Tewksbury and New York-based
dealer F. M. Prescott. The book contains 1004 numbered pages, many of which
are blank, and an index. The spine is stamped "Ledger No. 1 Natl’ Phon’o C°"
and is labeled "Jan 28* 1896 to Sept 30th 1898." The entries are written in faint
green ink, and some may be difficult to read.
This book has been filmed at a reduction ratio of 16:1.

List of Molds and Catalog Numbers
This undated book probably covers the period December 1897-March
1901. It is one of three books used by Albert Wurth relating to electroplated
master molds for phonograph cylinders (see also N-91-11-24 and N-97-12-15,
Notebook Series). Standard size and concert molds are listed separately.
Included are the names of the recording and talent, mold numbers, National
Phonograph Co. catalog numbers, and remarks concerning the quality of the
mold. Some of the pages contain annotations made by an archivist. The front
cover is labeled "List of Moulds and Catalogue Numbers" and "Concert Mould
on Page 34." The book contains 198 numbered pages.
Blank pages not filmed: 6-29, 32-33, 46-198.

NORTH AMERICAN PHONOGRAPH COMPANY RECORDS
Though not a founder, Edison was involved with the North American
Phonograph Co. (NAPC) prior to its organization. Incorporated in New Jersey
on July 14, 1888, the NAPC was the marketing intermediary between the
Edison Phonograph Works and the regional companies operating in the United
States and Canada. The company’s founding directors included Jesse H.
Lippincott, the sole licensee of the American Graphophone Co., who acquired
the Edison Phonograph Co. on June 28, 1888 and, along with it, exclusive
rights to develop the phonograph patents commercially in the United States
and Canada. The NAPC subsequently acquired Lippincott’s phonograph rights
and his interest in the Edison Phonograph Co. It also joined Lippincott in
several contracts with Edison and the Edison Phonograph Works, and it
became liable for its own as well as much of Lippincott’s financial indebtedness
to Edison.
Edison eventually assumed financial and administrative control of the
NAPC. Between December 1891 and June 1892 he became a member of its
board of directors and executive committee, and he succeeded Samuel Insull
as president. In August 1894 Edison, the company’s largest individual
bondholder, called his bonds immediately due and payable. The company was
placed in receivership, and Edison resisted the receiver’s requests for the
assignment of his phonograph patents. With the founding of the National
Phonograph Co. in 1896, Edison resumed dual control of marketing and
manufacturing the phonograph. He also inherited legal disputes with numerous
NAPC "sub-companies" or "subsidiaries." These regional companies, which
were organized, licensed, and sometimes partly owned by NAPC, operated as
franchises with exclusive rights to lease phonographs and graphophones within
their respective territories.
The records of the NAPC and its subsidiary companies cover the period
1887-1905, with most items dating from 1888-1894. They consist of board
minutes, financial records, legal documents, scrapbooks, and other items. Also
included is a stock transfer book from the Automatic Phonograph Exhibition
Co., the firm that controlled distribution of the nickel-in-the-slot machine. A
finding aid is available at the Edison National Historic Site.
The documents appear on the microfilm in the following order: (1)
Minute Book; (2) General Ledgers; (3) Journals.

consists of (1) a transcription from a demonstration of the graphophone given to
congressional reporters in 1887; and (2) a volume of patent specifications, claims, and
drawings issued by the U.S. Patent Office to Edison, Charles S. Tainter, and Alexander
Graham Bell. The financial documents consist of: (1) three cash books (1888-1894); (2) six
volumes of sales and rental records (1890-1894); and (3) a series of twenty-year, six-percent
debenture bonds ($300,000 total issue), nos. 6-300 (1892).

Phonograph Co., and minutes from regular meetings of the trustees and stockholders. The
subjects covered include the election and resignation of trustees, the appointment of
officers, and relations with the North American Phonograph Co., the New York Phonograph
Co., and the Automatic Phonograph Exhibition Co. Other entries pertain to delays in
receiving machines and prices from the manufacturer; the leasing of office space at 257
Fifth Avenue; and expenses, commissions, and rental receipts. The financial documents
consist of (1) a ledger (1888-1890); (2) two journals (1889-1897); and (3) a cash book (1889-
New England Phonograph Company Records (1888-1905)

These records consist of a scrapbook and financial documents. The scrapbook covers
the period March 1889 to June 1890. It includes handbills, programs, clippings,
correspondence, notes, draft agreements, and photographs. The correspondence consists
primarily of letters of testimony, but some items pertain to the rental costs of phonograph
exhibitions. The correspondents include Peter T. Austen, professor of chemistry at Rutgers
College; J. H. Friend of the Western Pennsylvania Phonograph Co.; Felix Gottschalk and
other representatives of the Metropolitan Phonograph Co.; and Alfred O. Tate of the
Edison Phonograph Works. The clippings deal with company history, phonograph
exhibitions and applications, foreign rights, and technical matters. The financial documents
consist of (1) a stock certificate book (1889-1896) containing a record of issued stock and
cancelled shares, along with a list of stockholders; and (2) two stock ledgers (1889-1896;
1901).

affidavits and other documents from various legal cases. The litigants involved include the
Ohio Phonograph Co., the Edison Phonograph Co., Ilsen & Co., James L. Andem, Michael
G. Heintz, and Joshua M. Dawson. Among the exhibits are the license and trust agreements
with the North American Phonograph Co., an inventory and appraisal of company property,
and a list of stockholders.
Local Phonograph Companies
Convention Proceedings
The Edison National Historic Site contains the first two volumes of the proceedings
of the four annual conventions that were held from 1890 through 1893. The first meeting
took place in Chicago on May 28-29, 1890 and was called to order by Edward D. Easton,
president of the Columbia Phonograph Co. Representatives from thirty-three local

was a claim and what, if any,
recommendation he had to make in

that at present he was not prepared

Dear Sir:
Your favor of the 2Slh inst. at
hand. Contents duly noted.
Of course we are well aware
under the XI Section of the agreement
between the North American and the
New England Phonograph Companies
you have the rigid, to establish the
price which the local companies
shall pay for machines in case
that sale is ordered by the North
American Company. Thereupon we
have nothing to say in regard to
the increased price of ten dollars
to the original price, now making
the machines billed to us at One
hundred and live dollars (§105.)
each, thereby leaving Ninety Dollars
to be divided between the North American
Company and the New England
Company.
hut we desire to call your
attention to the injustice of such
a step of this to the local company
■who has to pay out a commission
of ten per cent, to Agents or canvassers
who arc using efforts to sell machines
211
throughout their territory which is
necessary when it is ns large ns
that of New England. AVhen you
do this the New England Company
only gets thirty dollars out of it,
and you get forty live dollars.
And it seems to us, that it
necessarily tend to curtail la
the sale of machines in this U
Without further comment:

We are
Yours \

General Ledger (1893-1894)
This ledger covers the period December 1893-August 1894. As the book
of final entry, it summarizes transactions relating to the sale of phonographs,
graphophones, nickel-in-the-slot machines, and recording cylinders in the
United States and Canada. Included are sales, royalty, and rental accounts;
advertising, promotion, and territorial franchise accounts; experimental
expenses; commissions; and accounts concerning stock and depreciation. Many
of the accounts pertain to the regional phonograph companies, as well as the
North American Phonograph Co.’s operations in New York City, Chicago, and
Buffalo. The front cover is marked "Ledger" and "1894." The spine is stamped
"Ledger." The book contains 501 numbered pages, most of which are blank.
This book has been filmed at a reduction ratio of 16:1.
